Dyad And Its Effect On Small Group Interaction

A group’s most important feature is its size. Size determines how group members interact with each other. Group size varies from group to group. The size of a group determines the dynamics of how a group interacts. Small groups tend to more personal and intense than larger groups. The idea that small groups have distinct interaction patterns that are not found in large groups was suggested by sociologist George Simmel. Small groups are small enough for members to form a bond with each other and interact with each other simultaneously.
There are two types of small groups. The first type of small group is called a dyad. A dyad is a group consisting of two people. A dyad is the smallest possible group. Active participation of both group
A triad is formed when another person is added to a dyad. The relationship and interactions change when a third person is added to form a triad. If a member of a triad group stops participating in the group, the group can continue to function, unlike a dyad. Unlike in a dyad, two members in a triad can form a coalition to pressure the third member to conform to their ideas. With small groups, communication patterns are consistent and predictable. An example of a triad is a group of three siblings. A group of siblings starts out as a dyad until the third sibling is born and added to the group. If one sibling was to pass away, the group would still exist even without the one member. Two siblings ganging up on the other to get the bigger bedrooms in the house is an example of two members of a triad forming a

An example of a dyad that I witness on a daily basis is my parents and their marriage. They have had a successful dyad group for over twenty years now. If they were to file for divorce, that would be the dissolution of their group. The dyad group of a husband and wife commonly ceases to exist due to divorce and separation as there is no longer the conversation between the two members of the group happening. In daily life it is common to see the married couple dyad group fall apart, but also form as friends and family get
